I apologise to you KK if this is in the wrong section, its not really anything to do with my site but something I want to happen through the forums. I wont be offended if you move me somewhere else


Ok, so, .......hmmm where to begin. This year I have decided to do happy beads. What are happy beads?, I hear you cry. Well, they are beads to make someone happy. So often life is sweeeeet then kicks you up the ass for no good reason, this is where the happy beads come in.

Haunting the forums as I do...well,....three anyway, I have come to the conclusion that for many of us this is all we really have that keeps us sane. Many of us go through awful things and dont announce it but deal with it quietly and with pain either emotional or physical.

I want to do my bit, all I ask is that if you know of someone who could do with cheering up, pm me their address with happy beads in the subject. I dont need to know why, it will be anonymous, and I would prefer it if the people who received the beads kept it off the forum too. This is just a private thing that I want to to quietly to make peoples sad times a bit happier.

Now, I AM NOT MUSHY, I just give a damn, however, if someone trys to get one over on me I will name and shame you on every forum I know > Its an awful thing to say, but we all know people like that are out there and I want this to be a good thing that carries on.

Awww I think thats a fab idea Tan.

it makes me happy just thinking that you care about people!
well done with your efforts!

Wonderful idea Tan. Sadly, I don't know too many people nearby - I'm a bit cut off in this part of Devon but if I hear of any damsel in distress I'll let you know. You're a sweetheart!

You are such a nice person, what a lovely idea.

Ahhhh, Tan, what a wonderful and kind person you are. I think that is a lovely idea, good luck to you.

well it has made me happy just reading your beautiful idea!
this time last year i would have taken you up but everyone is well this year
thank you for doing this though- how wonderful!

What an absolutely wonderful idea.

Thankfully I don't know of anyone at the moment but I'm sure over the coming year there will be many people who need cheering up for whatever reason and you will be the first person I contact.

What a lovely, generous person you are.

What a cute idea Tan, hope it goes well.

I've moved this to beading banter, and made it a sticky for you so that it doesn't get lost over the new year.

Its a very kind and thoughtful gesture.

That's a lovely thought Tan

This is a fabulus idea Tan. You are a very special person.
